Feeling BLUE? Warning, Sharp and pointy pictures!!

Hello and good day. I hope everyone is doing well.. Spring has finally Sprung here in Michigan and I am gearing up for some Mushroom hunting and gardening, and that ever growing.. honey do list!

Heres some images of a custom order I just finished up. I gota say. Sometimes I even surprise myself with how these knives finish out. Meaning I am VERY happy with this one and how it looks.

I took about 300 pictures trying to capture the true color and character of the Mammoth tooth. as well as the details of the blade and knife.
And even with all my efforts. A photo just doesn't do this one justice.

The specs on this are High Carbon Damascus "Tsunami pattern" 288mm heel to tip. 55mm at the heel. 2.5 thick above the heel tapering to the tip.
Handle is Mosaic damascus bolsters and 12000 year old wholly mammoth tooth. Take a few seconds and get a good look at this handle. Im amazed and in awe of the beauty and patterning/textured look even though its smooth as glass.
Features.. Copper and brass mosaic pins. and black and copper spacers. and liner. and full file work "thorn and vine patter"

As always, comments and critiques welcomed and encouraged.

God Bless.
Randy
